Almost any coffee you can get hot, you can also get cold, though then you'll have to decide on if you want it over ice or blended! Sometimes I don't blame people for taking 20 minutes to order their coffee, there's so many choices.

I had the same feeling at first, but it really works.

I'll approach this from a bit of a different direction, the cost: The Motherboard will set the quality, the quantity, and the tone for everything else you attach to it. If there is anything that you should be willing to "go big of go home" on, it's the motherboard. There are a lot of good...

I think that message would have come across better if we had seen another Parasyte that made a full "adaptation" to human life. Taken the Ryoko Tamiya (is that the name? I forgot already!) approach to the full extent. It would have been nice if they had come across at least one Parasyte who...

The humans are bad for the environment message.

Okay...and now some new stuff happened. And THAT I agree is a problem. Even if they decided to do some new stuff, there should have been much more effort put in to making it all work together, even if it was different from the original or prequel trilogy, it should at least be internally...

I just finished binge watching the show and I gotta say it did a pretty good job of holding my attention. Good characters, cohesive plot, though a little predictable at times. Didn't really care for the message though. Not to say I think the message is wrong, just that it wasn't really...

From the perspective of warfare, this is not unusual. When the submarine was invented, Germany believed that the rules of war did not apply to submarines. Japanese kamakazi pilots. Modern suicide bombers. There is nothing illogical going on here. A person who viewed themselves as a hero...

Having "not seen something" in the universe is a terrible excuse for saying this is a bad element. The Death Star was as much an instrument of destruction as one of terror. It's like a nuclear bomb, you're not really supposed to USE the thing more than once or twice. On top of that, "suicide...

I hear this comment a lot. But I just don't see it. I'd have to rewatch the movie again, which I don't mind since as I said, I generally enjoyed it. But for all the complaints about it, I just never saw them. The only thing I expressly didn't like was the casino-planet place.

I heard about this show a while back and kept meaning to watch it.....still haven't done that.

I'm critical of all the movies. They're "classics" but like a lot of classics if you stop and sit down and really dig into them, there are problems. Storytelling problems. Characterization problems. Continuity problems. For as imperfect as the New Trilogy is, I've largely learned the best...

Look I'm gonna be That Guy and say I actually enjoy the new movies. It definitely shows that they lack a cohesive plan. I'm not going to play the blame game on who's responsible for that, they all are, from the top to the bottom. But I'm not going to laud Lucas as a great writer. I mean he's...

Lets just say my part of the country still prefers to be called the "Wild West" rather than the "Midwest".

My dinner last night, a good old fashioned steak, beans and potato, with whiskey of course. Can't be country without the whiskey.
